The Tooth Fairy comes off the Earl Grey and has a (no doubt brief) epiphany

Jeffrey Pullicino Orlando on Facebook tonight:

I feel that my colleague Franco Debono should have attended for the PN Parliamentary Group meeting today. I suggested that this meeting should be held to give us an opportunity to clear the air before tomorrow’s crucial vote. The vote tomorrow is not about the future of the P.N.-it’s about the stability of our country at this crucial moment.

    “Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country”. Go for it, Jeffrey et al.

      U la qieghdin fiha, majteswel raise it a step,

      “Ask not what the EU can do for you, but what you can do for the EU”.

  2. Jozef says:

    You bet it’s time to clear the air, Jeffrey.

    As for the stability of the country, well, it does depend on the future of the PN, unless you think Joseph’s smooth plastic dream is an alternative.

      Time is running out – in less than 24 hours, hurdle No 1.

      Hopefully, no more hurdles unless someone decides otherwise.

      Franco posted on his Facebook wall a few hours ago: “Be Yourself. There is something that you can do better than any other. Listen to the inward voice and bravely obey that”.

      I wonder, what can he do better than any other?

      • Bus Driver says:

        That ‘something’ in Franco’s case is very evidently ‘being himself’ and the results are not at all pretty.

      • Grezz says:

        “Listen to that inward voice”? Surely he meant “inner”?

        Is this guy schizophrenic? Just asking, ghax gej bl-“inward voice”..

    Ms Daphne please stop it, you’re destroying the NP by setting everybody against each other. You’re dividing our party. I’m sure that’s not what you want to do. But it is what you are doing. Do recognise that people have got a right to speak: Franco Debono, Jesmond Mugliette, Jeffrey Pullicino Orlando, Robert Arrigo, Robert Musumeci? Since when does criticising the PN bring about an embargo to attack these same people? If this goes on we’ll be back to the 70’s soon, either because labour will be in power or because the PN would have morphed itself to the labour of the 70’s which we know all too well.

    [Daphne – And then when I say that you’ve got to be thick to vote Labour, I am pilloried. Alerted by your use of the new elve refrain, I ran a search on your IP number and discovered that you are in fact the very same person posting slanderous comments about me and my son under the name Garnaw. You have also posted antagonistic comments here as: Carol, ini, Mrs Bucket, Lizio, C. Azzopardi, xuxka, Marthese, Qazzewni, Priority, and Nicola.]

      Daphne, what is the new elve refrain?

      I love your investigative streak. Another elf unmasked, I would say.

      [Daphne – The new elve/alve refrain is that there is a clique around the prime minister and that this clique is alienating others while people like Daphne and Lou sow discord within the party (when neither of us works for it). There is an optional addendum this refrain, which is that the prime minister doesn’t stop me or condemn me, therefore he is responsible for and complicit in what I write – you know, because the prime ministers of democratic nations routinely interfere in what people write and do.]

    Ok, Labour should vote with the government tomorrow then.

      More directly, Baxxter:
      “Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your bank account.”

    JPO on the road to Damascus.

  7. Mister says:

    Sometimes I wonder if JPO suffers from Multiple Personality Disorder.

  8. Grezz says:

    “attended for” … makes one wonder how, with their abysmal level of English, these people made it through to university.

  9. silvio says:

    I think it is too early to star rejoicing that JPO is back in the fold.

    It could just be his condition, playing silly tricks.

    I don’t know about him, but It happens with people suffering from a condition called bipolar disorder, shifting from one extreme to another.
    .
    It could also be that somebody has stopped spiking his Earl Grey tea.
    .
    Or that he is feeling pushed out,of the limelight by Franco Debono, so he is changing tactics.

    I suggest we observe him closely for a few days, before deciding to welcome him back or not..

    In closing, how about this, Baxxter:

    Do not ask your country to do anything for you ; for me, my Mistra project will be enough.
